Week 7: Technology Rocks Part 2 – posted October 26, 2011
E-Books
E-books are becoming quite a topic of discussion everywhere you turn. Our work for this week sends us exploring the world of e-books! The article linked below details the many issues surrounding the addition of e-books to a library collection.
Discussion Posting
For our discussion this week, your task is to locate an article about e-books. This article can be from any source -- newspaper, magazine, academic database, library-focused periodical, blog, etc. Summarize the article for us and include the link so we can read the original. (Makes getting a "5" for participation this week almost a given if you continue the dialogue :-)
In addition, please share your thoughts on using e-books and any benefits students might derive from their use. Will you be including e-books in your collection? Why or why not?
Assignment
Email online discussion self-assessment score for Week 6. Due 10/29/11.
